To identify critical non-human drivers of antimicrobial resistance in lower- and middle-income countries and propose integrated One Health strategies that extend beyond human healthcare.
Synthesized evidence on antimicrobial misuse across terrestrial food-animal agriculture, aquaculture, and healthcare settings in lower- and middle-income countries.
Evaluated current antimicrobial resistance action plans against emerging environmental reservoirs and food safety challenges.
Identified that existing containment strategies focus primarily on human clinical misuse, largely neglecting antimicrobial use in livestock, aquaculture, and waste contamination.
Determined that unaddressed environmental pollution and agricultural antibiotic exposure create critical reservoirs that undermine human-focused stewardship programs globally.
